Sanskrit Text
आकाशं
तु
वनाभ्याशे
मन्यन्ते
गुणवत्तरम्
।
बहुभिर्गुणजातैस्तु
ये
युद्धकुशला
जनाः
॥
English Translation
While attacking enemies resistance may be offered from within it. In pitching the camp, a region lying near the forest is regarded as much better than one under the open sky by men who are masters of military science and warfare. The camp should be pitched for the troops not far from such a forest.
